Next week, I’m attending Gartner’s Application Architecture, Development & Integration Conference (AADI) in Vegas. I’ll be splitting my time amongst SOA, Cloud Computing and Event Processing sessions. I haven’t built my agenda yet, but I’ll definitely be at the SOA Consortium end-user panels on Cloud Computing Use Cases and SOA Success Stories.
When possible, I’ll be blogging and tweeting from the sessions. The conference twitter hashtag is #gartneraadi.
If you are attending and want to connect on SOA, Cloud Computing, SOA & Cloud Computing and/or Event Processing, please send me an email, or ping me on Twitter.

In February, as I began my cloud watching in earnest, I wrote the following:
“Only time will tell if my cloud watching is attention well spent. If the cloud is indeed "the future of the Internet", then yes. If the cloud is merely a repackaging of everything that we already do, then no. Most likely, the cloud’s promise falls somewhere in between, landing closer to the future than the past.”
Since then, of course, I’ve launched Elemental Cloud Computing, which some have interpreted as a now bullish position on cloud computing. That would be a misinterpretation. more >>

This week, I’ve started up the Cloud Watch section of Elemental Cloud Computing. Cloud Watch items are snippets from cloud computing industry news, business and technical publications, and thought leaders. These snippets may be as short as a 140-character tweet, or as long as a few paragraphs. Cloud Watch items will be posted throughout the course of the day, and may be expanded as more voices and sources cover a hot topic. Cloud Watch items may include a short Elemental Cloud Computing perspective.
Unintentionally, the opening cloud watch items have a business/cloud economics theme: more >>

Elemental Cloud Computing is a new research offering dedicated to exploring the opportunities, issues, technologies, offerings and implications of cloud computing from a practitioner perspective.
Key to the practitioner perspective is context. Context influences the Elemental Cloud Computing (ELCC) research philosophy in two ways. First, cloud computing is being viewed in the broader context of business, technology, people, and value attainment.
Second, cloud computing is being considered as part of a broader enterprise technology strategy. This includes understanding the connections and/or potential conflicts between cloud computing and services architecture, information strategies, portfolio management, business architecture, business-driven IT profiles and IT capability delivery.
Although Elemental Cloud Computing is a new research offering, I have been following and writing about the cloud computing space over the course of 2009. more >>

While Elemental Cloud Computing is a new research offering, I have been following and writing about the cloud computing space over the course of 2009. As many know, it started unintentionally, as a result of attending the Open Group’s Cloud Computing Summit in February.
Shortly afterwards, I published my Unintentional Cloud Watching >> Cloud Watching for Enterprise Architects post on elemental links, and began an intentional study of cloud computing through the lens of an enterprise architect.
I’ve published the findings of that study on elemental links, and at times, also on Business-Driven Architect. For both reference and ease of use, I’ve imported the majority of these cloud computing posts. Each imported post is tagged with “archives”.
The archives include: live coverage of conferences and online events, reading picks, original pieces, and general observations and commentary. As I imported the posts, I added detailed topical categorization and tagging, so it should be easy to look around.
